Transcript of conversation with Trey Parker and Matt Stone, at Reason's Aug 2006 conference in Amsterdam
"Reason: Each of you at various points have called yourself libertarian. Is that an apt description? Parker: People started throwing that word around to describe us right around the second or third season. They would sit us down and go, 'So are you libertarian?' And I would always say, 'I don't know, am I? You've seen my stuff.' I still don't really know the answer to that question. I think I am, though."

"The genius of Parker and Stone was to see that in our day a new frontier of comic transgression has opened up because of the phenomenon known as political correctness. ... Like Adam Smith, Parker and Stone are deeply suspicious of people who speak about the public good and condemn the private pursuit of profit."
